Where will this lead?

A qualification in Latin at this level is highly regarded at university. Generally it demonstrates an ability to see things in perspective and to analyse them, before making any hasty judgements- abilities much in demand in most professions today. IB Latin can lead to one of the many university courses in Latin, Classics (with Ancient Greek), Ancient History and Classical Studies. In recent years, fewer classical students have failed to get jobs at the end of their courses than graduates of any other discipline.
